Carlos Santos has dedicated his entire life to the footwear industry. When he was only 14 years old he entered Zarco, the factory he would acquire some years later, and started to work in the accounting department, but soon realized his passion was far away from numbers. In this interview, for Portuguese Shoes TV, he confesses he has been attracted to shoes and in love with them since the early days.

The brand, named after its mentor, is 100% Portuguese and proud of being focused on quality to differentiate their products at international level. The company, which applies the Goodyear Welted system in its manufacturing process, currently produces 70 000 pairs per year and operates in several countries, such as Germany, France, Holland, Japan, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain and the US, and is preparing to venture into new markets.
